A Na2MnPO4F/C nanocomposite material is successfully synthesized via spray drying, followed by a high-temperature sintering method. It is shown that the highly phase-pure Na2MnPO4F with symmetry of the P21/n space group is uniformly embedded in the carbon networks, which play a key role in building up a highly efficie…
We propose a novel template-assisted strategy to prepare nanometer-sized manganese oxide (nano-MnO2) by self-assembly of some MnO2 platelets and demonstrate its application as a new class of biosensing platform for probing DNA hybridization and aptamer-target interaction in a homogeneous solution.
In this work, the authors demonstrate the potential of epitaxially grown highly doped InSb as an engineered, wavelength-flexible mid-IR plasmonic material. The authors achieve doping concentrations over an order of magnitude larger than previously published results and show that such materials have plasma frequencies…
Reservoir silting is an unavoidable issue. It is estimated that in Italy, the potential rate of silting-up in large reservoirs ranges from 0.1% to 1% in the presence of wooded river basins and intensive agricultural land use, respectively. In medium and small-sized reservoirs, these values vary between 0.3% and 2%. Co…
The Monte Carlo simulation of the interaction of neutrons with matter relies on evaluated nuclear data libraries and models. The evaluated libraries are compilations of measured physical parameters (such as cross sections) combined with predictions of nuclear model calculations which have been adjusted to reproduce th…
We report a complete analysis of model silica/styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) nanocomposites including a direct and quantitative correlation between the filler structure and the mechanical reinforcement. We compared two different ways of sample processing: a solvent casting route with well-defined colloidal silica and…
Anions stabilize stacking of C5-symmetric macrocycles, called cyanostars, into dimers in solution and herein we demonstrate this stacking in solid-state crystals. We further show that this guest binding can be applied as a route to bilayer growth at the solution-graphite interface.
Reaction of Co(NCS)2 with 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)-ethane (bpa) leads to the formation of [Co(NCS)2(bpa)2]n, which, on heating, transforms into the new layered coordination polymer [Co(NCS)2(bpa)]n. This compound can also be prepared in solution, but because no reasonable single crystals are available, its crystal structure…
A simple and effective approach was demonstrated to synthesize flowerlike Pt nanocrystals on polydopamine (PDA) functionalized reduced oxide graphene (RGO). Inspired by mussels, the PDA/RGO composites were obtained via the reduction of GO nanosheets by dopamine, followed by simultaneous capping by PDA. Then, the synth…
Significance: Chronic wounds are known to be a significant issue globally. Of concern in wounds are the numbers and types of residing microorganisms and the ability of the host's immune system to control their proliferation. Wound healing is impeded by colonizing microorganisms growing within the biofilm phenotypic st…
A novel hydrophobic metal-organic framework (MOF), namely Cu2 L (L = 3,3',5,5'-tetraethyl-4,4'-bipyrazolate), is synthesized through a stepwise method, and exhibits an unprecedented 3,4-c net. The exceptionally thermal, chemical, and air stability of this MOF, especially in water and under acidic or basic conditions,…
In this work, novel uniform Cu2O nanocrystals (NCs) with a size of 4 nm were synthesized by a remarkably simple and facile route via a synproportionation reaction of Cu2+ with metal copper powder at room temperature. The obtained Cu2O NCs as an integrated photocatalytic adsorbent (IPCA) exhibited high adsorption affin…
Nerve conduits are promising alternatives for repairing nerve gaps; they provide a close microenvironment that supports nerve regeneration. In this sense, histological analysis of axonal growth is a determinant to achieve successful nerve regeneration. To evaluate this process, the most-used immunohistochemical marker…
Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is a histological type of epithelial ovarian cancer that is less responsive to chemotherapy and associated with a poorer prognosis than serous and endometrioid carcinoma. Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma which produces reactive species has recently led to an explosion of resea…
High strength chitin/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) composite hydrogels (RCP) were constructed by adding PVA into chitin dissolved in a NaOH/urea aqueous solution, and then by cross-linking with epichlorohydrin (ECH) and freezing-thawing process. The RCP hydrogels were characterized by field emission scanning electron micr…
Loading of the six related Minichromosome Maintenance (MCM) proteins as head-to-head double hexamers during DNA replication origin licensing is crucial for ensuring once-per-cell-cycle DNA replication in eukaryotic cells. Assembly of these prereplicative complexes (pre-RCs) requires the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC…
Mesoporous-activated carbon from durian seed (DSAC) was prepared; it was used as adsorbent for the removal of methyl red (MR) dye from aqueous solution. Textural and adsorptive characteristics of activated carbon prepared from raw durian seed (DS), char durian seed (char DS) and activated durian seed (DSAC) were studi…
Advances in the field of nanoplasmonics are hindered by the limited capabilities of simulation tools in dealing with realistic systems comprising regions that extend over many light wavelengths. We show that the optical response of unprecedentedly large systems can be accurately calculated by using a combination of su…
Abstract Activated carbon (AC) is a low‐cost and effective catalyst for oxygen reduction in air cathodes of microbial fuel cells (MFCs), but its performance must be maintained over time. AC was modified by three methods: 1) pyrolysis with iron ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (AC‐Fe), 2) heat treatment (AC‐heat), and 3…
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles-functionalized N-doped graphene (NGR) composites (NGR/TiO2) were prepared through solvothermal treatment approach using exfoliated NGR and tetrabutyl titanate as the staring materials. The composites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray…
